Did anyone else notice this? Staples site shows QB being FAER... not MIR. See screenshot.

edit: Bah! When you click into it, it still say s "Easy Rebate" but does say you have to register it as usual. What's EASY about jumping through that additional hoop?

I plugged it into the kiosk, then checked out with yesterday's version of the coupon (even though it would have fit under the current coupon's "regularly priced $449 or more" wording. No hiccups or hassles whatsoever. Took computer down to $299, then I tossed in my ink rewards and a small stack of Discover Staples GCs... so net dollars in this laptop is less than $150. Yay!Red for idiotic math.

The answer is "D" ... there is not enough information provided to solve the problem. So, in terms of math, YOU are the one who is mistaken. $25 Staples GCs cost $20 from Discover CB. 4 cards cost me $80, and chewed up $100 in product cost. Ink rewards cost me NADA, ZIP, ZERO dollars... and represented the bulk of "money" I paid at the register for this item. The other $30.54 went onto my Discover card. The balance of the <$150 I stated previously were in "other" rewards for FAER purchases. So... now that you've had your first lesson in math, study hard, and we'll test you later.

Darn...wish I was on FW an hour ago. Would have picked up a Kindle Fire for the wife using the bonus $25 off, but now all my local Staples are closed. Still deciding among Nexus 7, Kindle Fire and Fire HD, but price will probably ultimately push me to one.
